Bought one for the wife , what an amazing , powerful , excellent handling car . It is a sleeper ....

@mrniceguy7832 8 лет назад

They really don't need to change anything else! Just bought one and love it!

@EinSofQuester 5 лет назад

I just bought an AWD 2016 infinity qx50 in pearl white with black leather and all the trimmings. I love it. The performance and handling puts a smile on my face. It's a beautiful vehicle with enough cargo space to fit a large bike without taking the wheels off.

@shaunr5450 2 года назад

Did you also check out the qx70? I'm torn between the two. Would like a little more space for kids, but don't want to give up the qx50 sportiness.

@EinSofQuester 2 года назад

@@shaunr5450 I still have my 2016 QX50. I don't think the newer QX50s are as sporty as the 2016. It's been a very dependable vehicle. I've had no problems at all. I just do the regular maintenance and I've replaced the brake pads. It still puts a smile on my face when I floor it on the straight away or on the twisties :-) I don't need the extra room of the QX70.

@jamesdewer 5 лет назад

Traded in my 2015 Jeep Cherokee Trailhawk for a 2017 QX50 AWD. Night and Day. It's a little short on options and storage but lordy, that motor it pulls. The AWD as I am discovering with all the rain here in California puts that power down.

@@shaunr5450 The QX70 is definitely a larger vehicle and the back seats are suitable for children. Although I don't know if you want them spilling any drinks or snacks all over the place. At the time it was still made in Japan and I believe was the last year they were made there. It is truly a beautiful car sitting on 20-in wheels. It has the same 3.7 l engine which is outstanding. Seats for easily. The only reason I went with the QX50 besides saving $10,000 was I didn't need a car as big as the QX70. They handle really well with a very stiff ride and a corner. Excellently. Acceleration is pretty good. They might make one in a V8. In which case I would have definitely got the QX70.

@Fr4nkSanchez Год назад

Do you prefer this car over 2015 LR Discovery sport HSE or Audi Q3?

@michaelc.6306 7 лет назад

Roman does a nice review. There are some comments about the Interior. It's a beautiful interior with wonderful chairs. I'm surprised they haven't updated the dashboard with a small color hi def display rather than the 2009 black / white little display. But, the 3.7 is a pleasure to drive & Infiniti is keeping prices in a good range. Heck look what the Ford Escape costs loaded.

@tritchie6272 9 лет назад

Looks to me like it would be reasonably comfortable and have decent cargo space. I think I would prefer the AWD though.

@Zhaoimex 10 месяцев назад

I got myself the EX35 2016 V6 2.5l at China which here is called QX50. No major issues after 8years of usage, have 129.000km so far. Of course there are some things to fix here and there from time to time but nothing too costly.

how is the engine oriented? kind of surprising it comes as rwd only.

@TFLcar 9 лет назад

+dmoney8766 FYI it comes as both a RWD and AWD crossover as Roman mentions in the review.

I never learned which Q this was and forgot it existed.

@davidjensen5074 9 лет назад

I am surprised that it does not have a panoramic sunroof, and I am even more surprised that it does not have a power liftgate. I'd definitely take the Acura RDX, Cadillac SRX/CT5, or the new Lincoln MKX over the QX50.

@occckid123 9 лет назад

this car was built how long ago? what do you expect! the new qx30 which is the replacement should fix that...

@cameronklein225 9 лет назад

All the cars that you would take over the qx50 are not even in the same class. They're much larger. Remember, the qx50 is a CROSSOVER not an SUV. The chassis is literally the same as the q50 sedan. A better comparison would be the qx60.

@EinSofQuester 5 лет назад

I'd take 325 horsepower over automatic liftgate anyday

@MarcoPolo-ft9jz 8 лет назад

did they go back in time 15 years ago grab the design and brought it to the present?

@680ecks 9 лет назад

They don't seem to hold there value so find one you like used and ignore the dumb letters and number names. Don't seem to update anything to much just a slow roll following Nissans new stuff handed down after a couple years. Reminds me of Buick just fluff other models and call them Buick, not a bad idea as far as offering a lot of value and dependability of tried and true platforms,and quite nice styles ( Buick and infinity).

@juanzingarello4005 9 лет назад

+680ecks The problem is Nissan pretty much stopped giving a crap for Infiniti. Literally. Once Renault merged with Nissan, Carlos Ghosn was more interested in uglifying Nissans lineup than investing in Infiniti. He was even debating killing Infiniti off. When he hired Johan DeNysschen he told him that if he wanted to he could keep Infiniti alive but he was ok with killing it off too if Johan got tired of it. And now with DeNysschen off to Cadillac, I feel like Infiniti's future is up in the air now. And this poor attempt at a redesign is not exactly giving me any signs of hope that Infiniti will be around much longer. It's really sad because I feel Infiniti has the potential of being a worthy competitor to brands like Lexus and even BMW.

@2roammates37 8 лет назад

As much as I like the interior design, technologically it's very outdated and behind the competition. Even though it has some nice features, the convenience features that you would use over and over again are not easy to access. Would like if the review mentioned those items as well, such as getting to the outside temperature, and fuel consumption features, that in most cars are available all the time, in this one are cumbersome and unsafe to access while driving. Most cars are pretty good now a days, and it's the little things that will set them apart.

@Weerd2normal2 9 лет назад

The q50, qx60, and qx80 are such attractive cars. How did they come up with this? Not that this is horrible as much as it looks dated. Can we confirm this is a 2016 and not a 2008?

@mercedese3201994 9 лет назад

I feel like whenever Nissan can't sell something, they just make minor changes and sell it as new ex. Rogue Select; Frontier, Armada, Titan, and now this - its improved, but now 'new'

@facundofarias88 9 лет назад

and this is how nissan sells you a 2014 refurbished infiniti that didnt sell in the lot. bravo nissan you never ends to amaze me.

@EinSofQuester 5 лет назад

It's not refurbished. It's a brand new vehicle. Refurbished means a used product that has been fixed.

@marky678 7 лет назад

This outdated ugly SUV has: 325hp VQ37 engine that can rev over 7k, Engine mount behind front axle to create near 50/50 weight distribution, "Rev-Match" 7 speed transmission, "Forge Aluminum" Double Wishbone front suspension and "Forge Aluminum" Independent Multi-link rear suspension (you can only find this setup on Porsche Macan and Audi SQ5 and it ain't cheap), Hydraulic power steering for best road feedback (instead of modern numb electric power steering), Made in Tochigi, Japan (one of the best assembly factory in the world), and etc... This is pretty much 90% of Porsche Macan S' performance with 60% of its price. Name one 2017 compact SUV with all these features mention above that is under 45k OTD.

@marky678 6 лет назад

lol, I am just being sarcastic. I bought this car last year and I love it. Just about every QX50 video, people keep bashing about how ugly it is but didn't know that this is actually the best value sport crossover on the market and maybe in next 5 years as well.

@b.f.378 8 лет назад

Wowww. Infiniti waited about 8-9 years to refresh to this car just to add led lighting in the front and add more legroom?. Infiniti tends to DRAGGGGGGGGGGG the lifecycle for their cars. That's why I wouldn't spend all that money on a new one when I can get a 10 year old ( I dragged it) that has the same body style and looks lol

@thecedars0612 9 лет назад

Infinity lost track in engine department. They are using same old engine for generations in all Infinity lineup. Just by changing exterior design doesn't improve sales. No surprise they are selling Q50 with more than $6000 discount

I'm just commenting so y'all know that I (I can't be the only one) stopped watching the moment that hipster whistle clap chimey jingle music started playing. I'm Soo tired of that sound in EVERY video that it drives me nuts.

@kitsva 8 лет назад

Shame this model doesn't have auxiliary input for audio or support Bluetooth audio streaming unless you get $2000 Premium Plus package which again requires another $500 Premium package. So, you have to spend $2500 to play songs or hear Google maps on car audio. But that package ruins the interior in almost red looking ugly maple trim.

@EinSofQuester 5 лет назад

Not all Q50s come in maple trim. I need to inform you of that. Mine has black leather with a white exterior.

@NileshR12 9 лет назад

Nobody actually get this car please because it's so old & outdated by now even though it's just been recently refreshed because let's face it, it's still got some outdated exterior lighting & outdated cabin tech probably as well, unless if they've actually updated the infotainment system. They'll probably come out with a new QX50 concept or production car within the next 1-3 years.
